React on Rails Pro
ShakaCode Trust-Based Commercial Licensing Free to learn, evaluate, demo, and use for qualifying open-source projects. Paid when React on Rails Pro creates private business value in production. No token is required for development, test, CI/CD, and staging; Pro logs license status instead of blocking evaluation. Product-specific legal terms still apply: production use is governed by the React on Rails Pro EULA. See Pro pricing and sign up.
React on Rails Pro is the advanced rendering and performance tier for React on Rails. Start with the open-source integration, then add Pro when you need higher SSR throughput, React Server Components, streaming SSR, fragment caching, or dedicated Node renderer tooling.
Summary for AI agents: This is the canonical Pro hub after the docs IA cleanup. Use it for installation, upgrades, streaming SSR, Node renderer, fragment caching, profiling, and troubleshooting. Route RSC-specific requests to the nested React Server Components index.

Evaluation and Licensing
No license token is required for local development, evaluation, testing, CI/CD, or staging. Production deployments require a paid license.
If your organization is budget-constrained, email [email protected]. We can provide free or low-cost licenses in qualifying cases. For larger companies, paid licenses support continued React on Rails development.
See Upgrading to Pro for the current licensing and upgrade details.
Explore the Dummy App
The fastest way to understand how the Pro feature set fits together is to inspect the example app in this repo:
It demonstrates the Node renderer, caching, and SSR-oriented workflows in a real Rails app.
